v1.9.3 Code Slide formatting tweaks

You can specify how many columns the code on a code slide occupies. You can also override the default ratio of fixed pitch font character height to character width (1.2).

v1.9.2 Title-less slides, pre, code, triple backtick

Enhancements in 2 areas:

• You can create slides without titles
• You can create code slides where the code is syntax coloured - with <pre>. Also you can use triple backtick and <code> for code slides (as well as the pre-existing indent-by-4-characters method).

v1.9.1 Mostly restructuring

1.9.1 restructuring

v1.9 Flexibility in slide master slide selection

Allows the user to specify which slide in a template presentation is to be used for each type of slide md2pptx produces.

Sometimes users are handed template presentations where e.g. the blank slide is in the wrong place in the sequence. This helps them fix that.

v1.8.1 Card corners and title placement tweaks

You can specify whether cards have rounded or squared-off corners - on card slides. Similarly whether the cards' titles are above the card body or inside it.

v1.8 SVG image reference support

You can now reference SVG graphics - whether a local file or over the web. Uses CairoSVG. If you want this support you need to be at least at Python 3.6.

Note: Any release on or after 1 March 2021 will require Python at least at the 3.8 level.

v1.7.2 Vertical bars around multiple graphics are optional

Per Issue 47 it is no longer necessary to code vertical bars ("|") to get multiple graphics on a single slide. This should help authoring.

v1.7.1 Bugfix: Hyperlinks in slide titles didn't work

Fixes bug documented in Issue 45: Hyperlinks in slide titles didn't work (because the RegEx parsing the title line was faulty).

v1.7 Numbered List Items

You can use Markdown syntax for numbered list items, and you can intersperse them with bulleted list items.

v1.6.3 - Vertical Card Slides; More Dynamic Metadata

Now Heading Level 4 can mean vertical cards i.e. vertically arranged sections on a slide, compared to the previous horizontally arranged sections (or cards).

Also BaseTextSize and BaseTextDecrement can be specified dynamically, allowing for fine tuning of text sizes on bullet slides.
